battle of the astronomy tower

They had come out of nowhere. June, Alaska and Cedric were heading back to their chambers, their superiors taking over the night shift when it happened.

At first, June recognized her laugh. That terrible laugh. That torturous laugh. Instantly, a shiver went up her spine. If she was here, the others where here too. June did not question how she got into Hogwarts, she did not have time for that.

And then she appeared and stopped laughing when she saw the trio.

"Well, well, well," Bellatrix Lestrange said, her black eyes fixed on June. "Hello, dear cousin. Did you miss me?"

"Guys, get all the students in their common room," June said, not looking back at Alaska and Cedric. "Let the others know we happened."

"We won't leave you," Alaska said. "That's literally the first thing they taught us."

There was no time to argue. Bellatrix had already fired off a spell and the three of them jumped away to avoid it.

"Stupify!" June yelled.

It was chaos everywhere. June did not know where to look first. She could only hope all the students were safe and sound in their dorms.

"Confringo!" an all too familiar voice called and June turned her head to see Mabel, Luna, Ginny, Hermione, Ron and Neville storming down the stairs and into the battle.

"What are you doing?" June yelled, ducking to avoid a spell. "This is no place for students! Go back to your dorm!"

"We're here to help you!" Mabel shouted, leaping next to June. "And we're not leaving. You seem to be using our help. Tonks and the others are fighting off the Death Eaters on the other side of the castle."

"There are more?" June questioned, her voice rising a couple of octaves. "But how did they get in here?"

"That's the question," Alaska said, wiping the sweat off her forehead. "I thought you couldn't Apparate on Hogwarts Grounds."

"You can't," Cedric stated.

Ron gasped as he stared out of the window. "They put up the Dark Mark! They killed someone!"

"We can't do this alone," June breathed. "If there are as many Death Eaters as you say there are, we need backup."

"Who's going to help us?" Alaska asked desperately.
